\n

\n The dog is descended from the wolf and has lived with humans for thousands of years.
\n In the Stone Age, people began to tame wolves and selectively breed for gentle behavior.
\n Thus the first breeds of dogs gradually emerged.
\n Wondering which breeds have been around the longest? Here are the six oldest dog breeds in the world.\n <\/p>\n

1. Afghan hound<\/h3>\n

\n This elegant appearance is more than 4,000 years old and was used in Afghanistan as a hunting dog.
\n Ancient Afghan murals already show the greyhound.
\n The Afghan Hound is known to be independent, intelligent, friendly and a tad aloof.\n <\/p>\n

2. Akita Inu<\/h3>\n

\n The Akita Inu is one of the oldest native breeds of Japan, with a history of up to 4,000 years.
\n Archaeologists found bone remains similar to this race in Japan.
\n The Akita is courageous, independent, stubborn and loyal - and, in Japan, even a national symbol of happiness and protection.\n <\/p>\n

\n \"Akita\n <\/div>\n

3. Basenji<\/h3>\n

\n Originally from Central Africa, the Basenji was already depicted in Egyptian pyramids.
\n He was used to chase away reed rats and is one of the few dogs that does not bark, but makes a unique yodel-like sound.
\n The breed is curious, stubborn and intelligent, with a strong hunting instinct.\n <\/p>\n

\n \"Basenji\"\n <\/div>\n

4. Shar-Pei<\/h3>\n

\n The Shar-Pei is a Chinese breed that has been around since 220 BC.
\n His distinctive wrinkled skin and blue tongue make him instantly recognizable.
\n This intelligent and loyal dog used to be a watchdog and hunting dog, but today it is mostly a beloved family dog.\n <\/p>\n

\n \"Shar-Pei\"\n <\/div>\n

5. Chow Chow<\/h3>\n

\n The Chow Chow, also native to China, has been around for more than 3,000 years.
\n With his lion-like mane and blue tongue, he is one of the most iconic dog breeds.
\n The Chow Chow is independent, proud and strongly attached to its family.
\n An interesting fact: puppies are born with a pink tongue, which later turns blue.\n <\/p>\n

\n \"Chow\n <\/div>\n

6. Pekinese<\/h3>\n

\n The Pekinese is a small but ancient breed from China that lived at the imperial court more than 2,000 years ago.
\n These dogs were considered sacred companions and were the exclusive property of the nobility.
\n Their character is quirky, friendly and proud - a true aristocrat among dogs.\n <\/p>\n

\n \"Pekinese\"\n <\/div>\n

\n These breeds are living history - each with its own role in the development of the modern dog.
\n Fascinating how their properties have survived thousands of years!
